50 DANISH CYBER AND INFORMATION SECURITY STRATEGY 2022-2024 Active participation in the international fight against cyber threats 4.1 Strengthening the contribution to a rules-based international order Through significantly strengthened efforts in the UN and other norm and standard-setting organisations, as well as through increased cooperation with the tech industry, Denmark will increase its contribution to a rulesbased international order in cyberspace and shape the rules of the game in an area that is crucial for our security, safety and economic prosperity. 4.2 Diplomatic responses Denmark’s capacity to initiate and engage in international coordination of diplomatic responses to cyberattacks, such as attributions and sanctions, is strengthened, including in the EU context, with a view to increasing Denmark’s deterrence profile in the cyber area. 4.3 Strengthened capacity to counter cyberattacks by state and non-state actors A number of actions are being implemented to strengthening national cyber defence, including 1) strengthening the Cyber Analysis Division of the Centre for Cyber Security to increase technical attribution capabilities, 2) it must be possible to track influencing activities abroad on social media, 3) establishing an offensive cyber defence capable of detecting preparations by, warning of, deterring and countering cyberattacks by state and non-state actors against Denmark or our allies, 4) the Danish knowledge building and influence in the field of cyber operations and security in NATO is strengthened through the secondment of staff and 5) strengthening cyber security at the embassy level through the recruitment of designated technical standards, technical solutions and the institutionalisation of sustained dedicated cooperation in this area. 4.4 Strengthened deterrence of cyberattacks An active cyber defence must be built that will enable us to disrupt, mislead or stop an adversary’s cyber operations against Denmark. This includes the deployment of a liaison officer to Europol’s Joint Cyber Action Task force (J-CAT). 4.5 Strengthening controls on the proliferation of cyber products and the freezing of economic resources Controls on the proliferation of cyber products are being strengthened so that Denmark does not proliferate sensitive technology that cybercriminals can access. At the same time, we need to help businesses become better at freezing criminals’ funds for use in cyberattacks.
